CRAF/CASSINI (C/C)

TDS Mgr: R. Gillette NOPE: TBS

Project Mgr: J. Casani Deputy Project Mgr: R. Draper

Launch Date: Cassini - November 26, 1995 CRAF - February 10, 1996

projected SC Life/DSN SupDort: CRAF - 9.4 years Cassini - 12.6 years

project Responsibility: Jet Propulsion Laboratory , . .

Source: SIRD August 1991 Sponsor: OS0

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

CRAF (Comet Rendezvous Asteroid Flyby) - A mission to rendezvous with the comet Tempel 2 and to station-keep at the comet for a period of 2.6 years, including the comet perihelion. There is a flyby of the asteroid Mandeville prior to arrival at Tempel 2.

Cassini - A mission to place a spacecraft in a highly elliptical orbit around the planet Saturn and deliver a probe to the surface of its satellite Titan. There is a flyby of the asteroid 1989 UR1 prior to Saturn arrival.

Current Status - Congressional action on the Fiscal Year 1992 budget has cut funding for CRAF/Cassini, which will likely result in launch date changes. The next CRAF opportunity is a May 1997 launch to comet Kopff with arrival in late 2005. A likely Cassini launch would be October 1997 with arrival at Saturn in June 2004.

C. COVERAGE GOALS

1. CRAF

The Project requires one tracking pass (plus one Delta VLBI pass) per week from the 34-m HEF stations during cruise periods, continuous 34-m HEF coverage from launch to L + 30 days and around gravity assists and maneuvers. Coverage from the 70-m is required during asteroid flyby, maneuvers, comet arrival and search. For a radio science experiment, continuous 34-m HEF and 70-m coverage is required for 30 days (March 20 through April 16, 2001).

2. Cassini

The Project requires one tracking pass (plus one Delta VLBI pass) per week from the 34-m HEF stations during cruise, continuous 34-m HEF coverage from launch to L + 30 days and around gravity assists and maneuvers. During Saturn orbital operations, one 34-m HEF pass per day for the 24 days of cruise-like activities, and continuous 34-m HEF support during the 6 days of high- level activities for each 30-day orbit are required.

3 . Additional Anticipated Coverage

Both CRAF and Cassini will use their Low Gain Antenna (LGA) during most of the first three years of cruise. While using the LGA, 70-m support will be required to support the low 5- and lO-b/s telemetry. If the 70-m subnet is not implemented with an X-band uplink capability, simultaneous 34-m coverage will be required to provide the uplink in order to meet the command and navigation requirements.

D. FREQUENCY ASSIGNMENTS

CRAF is an X-band uplink and downlink mission. Cassini will be X-band uplink with either X- or Ka-band downlink. Ka-band will not be supported until January, 2002. Cassini will also have an S-Band Radio Science downlink capability. X-band, Ka-band and S-band channel assignments are TBS.

LV/Range: STS-IUS/ETR

Launch Date : October 18, 1989 Projected SC Life/DS N S u p -01%: 10 years/lO years

Source: SIRD May, 1988; NSP November, 1988 Sponsor: O S 0

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The purpose of the Galileo missions is to make observations of Jupiter and its satellites using an orbiting spacecraft and an atmospheric entry probe. The mission will determine the chemical composition and physical state of the Jovian atmosphere and its satellites, and the topology and behavior of the magnetic field and energetic particle flux of Jupiter.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The current Galileo Mission Plan calls for a Venus Earth Earth Gravity Assist (VEEGA) trajectory having a launch to end-of-mission duration of approximately 8 years.

The Galileo spacecraft consisting of an Orbiter and a Probe, together with an Intertial Upper Stage (IUS), was placed in Earth orbit by the Space

2-1

870-14, Rev. AF

Transportation System (STS) on October 18, 1989. The IUS placed the spacecraft on a trajectory to encounter Venus (20,000-km altitude) on February 10, 1990. The first Earth encounter (1000-km altitude) occurred on December 8, 1990. A second Earth encounter occurring on December 8, 1992 at 300-km altitude will establish the final trajectory to Jupiter with arrival date of December 7, 1995.

The Probe will be released 150 days prior to Jupiter arrival and will enter the Jovian atmosphere at just prior to JOI. During descent, the Probe will transmit its telemetry data directly to the orbiter for playback to Earth as soon as possible thereafter.

Following J O I , the orbiter will commence a 22-month, 10-satellite tour to complete the mission by July 1997.

C. COVERAGE

1. Coverage Goals

The current (1/91) estimate of the antenna coverage profile is given below. IOM GLL-MDT-90-141 is the basis for the updates to the profile as defined in the SIRD. This profile reflects the changes induced by the actual launch on 18 October 1989. Such changes include time of oppositions and conjunctions, size and locations of maneuvers, and a more comprehensive understanding of spacecraft performance. This will be refined as the actual mission design progresses. Note that the support rate is given in passes per month (ppm) for all mission phases, even though the duration of several phases is much less than one month.

A MISSION DESCRIPTION

The Geostationary Meteorological satellite (GMS-5) which is being developed by the National Space Development Agency of Japan (NASDA) is the fifth geostationary, spin stabilized, weather satellite. Its purposes are observation of cataclysmic events such as hurricanes, typhoons, and regional weather phenomena; day and night observations of regional weather; relay of meteorological observation data from surface collection points (ships, buoys and weather stations) to the Data Processing Center in Japan; and transmission of processing imaging data for facsimile reproduction of distribution points in the Western Pacific area.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The GMS-5 satellite will be launched from Tanegashima Space Center (TaSC) in southern Japan by a type H-I1 launch vehicle. The mission has been designed to follow the conventional injection sequence; i.e., parking orbit,

14-1

870-14, Rev. AF

transfer orbit, and near-synchronous orbit. Attitude maneuvers will be performed to orient the spacecraft to the correct attitude prior to the Apogee Kick Motor (AKM) firing, which will occur at the 2nd (nominal), or the 4th (contingency) apogee. After AKM firing, drift phase orbital and attitude maneuvers will be performed to place the spacecraft at its final geostationary position.

C. COVERAGE

The DSN will support the transfer and drift orbit mission phases.

1. Coverage Goals

The coverage will consist of the 26-m antennas as prime and the 34- m antenna at Madrid as backup support for launch through drift orbit. Maximum support will consist of two 8-hour tracks per station for a 7-day period, plus 23 days of contingency support from all complexes.

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The primary objective of the METSAT project is to provide a satellite system that meets the National Environmental Satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS) requirements as specified by the National Oceanic and Atmo- spheric Administration (NOAA). For the GOES I-M spacecraft, these requirements include an Imager and Sounder system, a Space Environment Monitoring (SEM) System, a Data Collection System, and a Search and Rescue (SARI System. The SEM subsystems include a Solar X-Ray Sensor (XRS), an Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS), a High-Energy Proton and Alpha Detector (HEPAD), a Magnetometer, and an X-Ray Imager (XRI). The GOES I-M spacecraft will be designed to meet specified performance requirements for a period of 5 years.

15-1

870-14, Rev. AF

The GOES I-M mission profiles are identical. The NASA phase extends from liftoff through completion of spacecraft checkout (approximately 30-45 days after launch). The GOES I-M spacecraft are launched using an Expendable Launch Vehicle (ELV) from Kennedy Space Center (KSC). At completion of spacecraft checkout, operations are transferred to NOAA, which will operate the spacecraft for the remainder of the mission.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The GOES I-M spacecraft has been designed to be launched using an ELV. Additionally, the spacecraft has been designed to be retrieved by the Shuttle in the event of a Perigee Kick Motor (PKM) or similar failure that would prevent the spacecraft from leaving low Earth orbit.

1. STS Launch and GOES I-M Development Philosophy

The GOES-I/M spacecraft will be launched, maneuvered into geostationary orbit, and checked out in orbit by the NASA/GSFC flight operations team using NASA, Air Force, and NOAA ground systems. The NASA phase of the GOES-I/M mission will be designed to satisfy the following mission objectives:

(a) Ensure the health and safety of the spacecraft from launch through handover to NESDIS.

(b) Conduct on orbit testing of the satellite and instruments to characterize system performance.

(c) Hand over the spacecraft to NOAA for operations with sufficient on-board propellant for a minimum of five years of stationkeeping.

2. Satellite Transfer Orbit Philosophy

The GOES-I/M spacecraft will be launched from KSC using Atlas G/Centaur D-1A expendable launch vehicles.

Approximately four minutes before liftoff, the satellite is switched to internal battery power. During the launch vehicle ascent phase, spacecraft telemetry is relayed to MSOCC using the STDN stations at MILA and Bermuda. After Atlas/Centaur separation, the Centaur upper stage performs two main engine burns to place the satellite into an elliptical orbit with the apogee close to geosynchronous altitude. Prior to satelite separation, the Centaur upper stage performs a reorb maneuver to ensure that the GOES omni antenna rotation is normal to the plane of the earth to eliminate look-angle nulls.

The DSN stations (Canberra, Goldstone, and Madrid) are used for Telemetry, Tracking, and Command (TT&C) operations. The DSN is supplemented by telemetry and commanding capability from the NOAA Wallops CDA station. Each DSN station complex is fully redundant within itself.

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The primary objectives of the Giotto Extended Mission (GEM), are to determine the composition and physical state of the Grigg Skjellerup comet's nucleus; to determine the processes that govern the composition and distribution of neutral and ionized species in the cometary atmosphere. I

Prior objectives of Giotto were the same as those for Halley's comet in March, 1986.

17-1

870-14, Rev. AF

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

Giotto consists of a single European Space Agency (ESA) spacecraft that was launched in 1985 from Centre Spatial Guyanis in French Guiana on an Ariane launch vehicle. After a successful launch into geostationary orbit and a heliocentric transfer trajectory, the spacecraft successfully encountered Halley's comet in 1986.

One month after encountering Halley's comet, March 1986, the spacecraft was placed in hibernation in a heliocentric orbit slightly less than 1 A.U. Between February 1990 and July 1990 the spacecraft was successfully reactivated, checked out, placed on a trajectory course to intercept comet Grigg Skjellerup in July 1992. The spacecraft has been in hibernation since July 1990.

C. COVERAGE

1. Coverage Goals

The telecommunication link threshold is influenced by the distance of the spacecraft from the Sun and the aspect angle of the spacecraft with respect to the Sun and Earth. Additional coverage is being provided by the DLR Weilheim, Germany, and ESA Perth, Australia, tracking stations. Stage I and Stage I1 of the Giotto Extended Mission have been completed. The DSN is committed to supporting the Stage I11 SIRD, whose requirements are listed below.

The DSN expects to meet these coverage goals even though requirements are in excess for the 70-m and 34-m standard subnets. View periods and other user requirements are not in direct conflict with Giotto during the Stage I11 support.

18-1

870-14, Rev. AF

to support Flight Project requirements and its primary objectives. The individual target objectives are as follows:

Galilean Moons: X-band observations will be used to put some limits on the small-scale structure of the regolith.

Mercury : Construct radar maps of portions of the unimaged hemisphere at -10-km resolution. Make a series of closure-point ranging measurements to be used for testing gravitation theories, including general relativity. Some of this work is coordinated with Arecibo observations, as part of a cooperative effort to minimize systematic sources of error. Refine estimates of Mercury's pole direction, to evaluate available theoretical explanations for the planet's spin/orbit resonance.

Venus :

Moon :

Mars :

Refine the rotation period and pole direction as much as possible prior to Magellan's orbital insertion. Obtain high-resolution (to -1 km) radar images of surface regions that cannot be mapped from Arecibo, at very small incidence angles (8 near 0"), i.e., with a viewing geometry very different from that (8-30") in Magellan images. Locate geologically interesting regions as candidates for Magellan high-resolution investigation. Refine existing estimates of Fresnel reflection coefficients for surface units with anomalously high radar albedoes, and determine those regions' angular backscattering law.

Construct 100-to-200-meter-resolution images of selected regions in each component of the Stokes vector, to elucidate the scattering mechanism and the nature of near-surface structure, and to constrain the electrical properties of the regolith. Measure topography in selected areas, to refine geologic interpretations of lunar landforms.

Maintain the accuracy of the Mars orbital ephemeris. Measure surface topography at tropical latitudes (k20"). Determine the surface reflectivity and effective slope for multiple ground tracks within the tropics. Use dual-polarization, cw measurements and joint Goldstone-VLA bistatic observations to elucidate the global variations in the surface's small-scale structural complexity. Constrain the surface's gross geometry at scales (-1 cm to -10 m) relevant to the safe landing and maneuverability of a spacecraft. Test hypotheses about temporal variations in radar reflectivity that might result from seasonal melting of subsurface ice.

Phobos and Deimos :

Near-Earth Asteroids:

Ma inbe 1 t Asteroids:

Comets :

Detect 3.5-Cm radar echoes and estimate each satellite's radar albedo, polarization signature, and angular scattering law. Constrain the satellites' surface bulk density and small-scale roughness.

Secure recovery of newly discovered objects. Refine orbits of previously observed objects. Use delay/ Doppler imaging to obtain information about dimensions, shapes, and spin vector. Constrain surface's dual-polarization scattering properties and elucidate near-surface characteristics at cm-to-km structural scales. Measure the asteroid's radar cross section; estimate the radar albedo and use it to bound the regolith bulk density, porosity, and metal concentration.

Using time-delay measurements, shrink the line-of- sight component of positional error ellipsoid. Use power spectra to constrain pole direction and diameter. Estimate surface slope at topographic scales, and near-surface roughness at small scales. Measure the asteroid's radar cross section; estimate the radar albedo and use it to bound the regolith bulk density, porosity, and metal concentration.

Search for clouds of large (2 cm) particles near the nucleus, such as those discovered around Halley and IRAS-Araki-Alcock. Image the nucleus and determine its size, shape, spin properties, and surface characteristics. Refine estimates of orbital elements, to clarify the dynamical history of long- period comets and to assist spacecraft navigation during missions to short-period comets.

Europa, Ganymede, ' and Callisto: Determine the 3.5-cm radar albedo and circular

polarization ratio of each of these icy satellites, whose 13-cm properties are extraordinary. Use the results to constrain existing theoretical explanations for the bizarre radar signatures. Search for radar features, localize them, and seek correlations with features in Voyager (and eventually Galileo) images. Refine the prediction ephemerides for each satellite, especially Callisto, to assist targeting of the Galileo spacecraft, by measuring echo Doppler frequencies. depends on echo strength, and radar measurements with the minimum precision required for ephemeris improvement cannot be obtained during 1993-98 unless Goldstone has a 1.0-megawatt transmitter.

Io : Obtain the first 3.5-cm radar detection of this volcanically active satellite, and use estimates of radar properties to provide information about the surface bulk density and small-scale roughness.

Saturn's Rings: Use delay-Doppler images in each Stokes vector component to constrain the manner in which radar waves are backscattered from the classical ring sections, and to infer the physical properties of ring particles. Use bistatic observations, with Goldstone transmitting and the VLA receiving, to image the ring system at 1200-km resolution.

Detect the first radar echoes from Iapetus and possibly Rhea, to ascertain whether these objects, whose surfaces contain nonwater ices, share the unusual radar properties of Jupiter's icy moons.

Detect the first radar echoes from Titan, and measure this object's radar albedo and angular scattering law. These measurements would constitute mankind's first direct measurements of Titan's surface. They would permit evaluation of the diverse models proposed for the configuration of Titan's surface, which might be at least partially covered by a deep, ethane-rich ocean.

C. COVERAGE

1. Coverage Goals

For this program, the coverage goals vary significantly with the target of opportunity. All of these goals (listed Table 1) require the support of DSS 14, which is the only facility with the necessary high-power transmit capability, and occasional support from DSS 12 and DSS 13. DSS 18 will replace DSS 12 in mid-1993. A replacement 34-m antenna (also designated DSS 13) will replace the current DSS 13 in 1992 for X-band reception and at a later date for S-band reception.

Table 1 lists the estimated GSSR usage for 1990-2000.

NOTE: One radar "track" consists of 8 hours of observing time, preceded by 1 . 5 hours of pre-cal and followed by 0.5 hours of post-cal. Each track requires DSS 1 4 . Interferometric observations (most Venus and selected Mercury tracks) also use DSS 13 and one other 34-m station.

The 10-year period covered by these estimates will include planetary encounters and prolonged planetary operations by several major flight projects. For this reason, it is considered unlikely that the DSN could sustain the average level of radar support requested while meeting its commitments to in-flight projects. It is estimated that 50 percent of the requested support is a more realistic expectation on which the program should base its science planning.

2. Network Support

Specific requirements for antenna time on DSS 1 4 are prepared on a yearly basis and submitted to the scheduling office for negotiation at least 6 months ahead of the earliest need date. The facility support to be provided by the DSN is indicated in the following table:

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The primary mission objectives of the International Cometary Explorer (ICE) comet mission are to determine the composition and physical state of the Giacobini-Zinner comet's nucleus; to determine the processes that govern the composition and distribution of neutral and ionized species in the cometary atmosphere; and to investigate the interaction between the solar wind and the cometary atmosphere.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The spacecraft was in a halo orbit around the Sun-Earth libration point until it was moved June 10, 1982 to the Earth's Geomagnetic Tail (GT). The spacecraft reached the GT in January 1983 and remained there until December 1983, at which time a lunar swing-by placed the spacecraft in a trajectory heliocentric orbit which encountered the comet Giacobini-Zinner in September

A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The International Solar Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) Program is a large, multi-national program involving three space agencies and up to eight space- craft. NASA, together with the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS) and the European Space Agency (ESA), has agreed in principle to coordinate their efforts in investigating the Sun and the Earth. Each agency is planning to construct and operate different spacecraft as part of this cooperative venture: Geotail provided by ISAS, Solar Heliospheric Observatory (Soho) and Cluster (four spacecraft) contributed by ESA, and Wind and Polar by NASA.

B. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

NASA contributions to the various ISTP missions are specified in two major initiatives:

(1) Collaborative Solar Terrestrial Research (COSTR) Initiative

( 2 ) Global Geospace Science (GGS) Initiative

The COSTR Initiative will combine resources and scientific communities on an international scale to undertake the development of instruments and their appropriate support elements, along with ground-based theory investigations in the context of a comprehensive program of solar-terrestrial physics. This program will study the overall balance and nature of solar- terrestrial interaction of the GEOSPACE region. These joint NASA-ESA-ISAS missions will carry instruments operated by an international team of principal investigators. The missions will be launched by various launchers and supported by the international ground-based networks and systems.

Specifically, COSTR defines the NASA contribution in terms of instruments, launch vehicle, and launch tracking and operations support for the Geotail, Soho, and Cluster missions.

The objective of the GGS Initiative is to undertake the development of two spacecraft and their appropriate support elements, and ground-based and theoretical investigations in the context of a comprehensive program of solar- terrestrial physics. This program in solar-terrestrial physics research will measure, model, and quantitatively assess the processes in the Sun-Earth interaction chain by the use of simultaneous spacecraft placed in complementary orbits.

Specifically, GGS defines the complete requirements which will be filled by the Wind and Polar missions.

The ESA contributions to the ISTP are defined in the ESA Solar Terrestrial Science Programme (STSP) .

A. GENERAL

The Geotail spacecraft will be provided by ISAS and will be a spin- stabilized cylindrical spacecraft 2.2 m in diameter and 2.3 m in height with a despun antenna. NASA will provide a Delta Launch Vehicle, tracking support by the Deep Space Network (DSN), and data processing support by the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). In exchange, ISAS will reserve part of the payload for NASA instruments together with a certain number of investigators from the United States.

As the solar wind flows toward the Earth, some of the energy is modified by the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and upper atmosphere. This inter- action causes the flow to be altered, creating a plasmasphere, plasma sheet, and ring currents in the Earth's Geomagnetic tail region. The result is a series of distinct regions which affect processes on the Earth. By traversing the tail region to a variety of depths, Geotail will be able to determine the

23-1

870-14, Rev. AF

size, position, and other properties of these regions. When correlated with information obtained from the other ISTP spacecraft, Geotail data should help to provide a more complete understanding of how the solar processes affect the Earth's environment.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The first launch of the COSTR Initiative will be the ISAS spacecraft Geotail. Presently, Geotail's launch will be in July 1992. The primary mission will have a duration of 24 months and an extended mission phase, lasting 1 year, can be expected. Two orbital phases are planned for Geotail.

In Phase 1, the Moon's gravity is used to control apogee, perigee, and orbital position in the magnetosphere by means of double lunar swingbys. Apogees will range from approximately 80 to 250 Re while perigees will vary between 5 and 10 Re. The orbital period during this phase will be 1-, 2-, and 3-month orbits, starting with the first lunar swingby in September 1992.

In Phase 2 Geotail will be moved to a lower geocentric orbit having dimensions of 8 x 30 Re. The orbital period during this phase will be approximately 4.9 days, starting in May 1994.

Orbits in both Phase 1 and Phase 2 will lie in or near the Moon's orbit plane.

C. COVERAGE

Primary ground station support will be from the USUDA 64-m station for 8 hours/day, 5 days/week. (S - and X-band).

DSN support will consist of receiving between three and four tape recorder data transfers per day, over two or three DSN stations. Each transfer of data takes 2 hours at 65 kb/s or 1 hour at 131 kb/s (S-band only). The bit rate will depend on the spacecraft range and whether support is from a 26- or 34-m station.

The 26-m stations are baselined for Geotail support. However, portions of the mission will be supported by the 34-m STD stations.

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The Laser Geodynamic Satellite I1 (LAGEOS 11) is nearly identical to the LAGEOS I satellite, which was launched by NASA in 1976 . However, LAGEOS I1 is completely passive, and is equipped with fused silian corner reflectors for ranging with ground-based lasers. The addition of LAGEOS I1 will provide the GSFC laser network with significantly increased satellite tracking opportun- ities, because LAGEOS I is at a 110-degree inclination and LAGEOS I1 will be at a 52-degree inclination.

The Mars Observer mission will deliver a single spacecraft to Mars for an extended orbital study of the planet surface, atmosphere, and gravitational and magnetic fields.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

The spacecraft will be launched during the September-October 1992 Mars opportunity using a Titan-TOS launch vehicle. The best mass performance for the 1992 opportunity is obtained with a long interplanetary trajectory, with a transit time to Mars of approximately one year. Insertion of the spacecraft into orbit at Mars will be accomplished by a sequence of propulsive maneuvers. The mapping mission will be conducted from a mapping orbit that is nearly circular at low altitude (378 km) and sun synchronous at the desired solar orientation. Repetitive observations of the planet's surface and atmosphere will be conducted throughout the primary mission, which extends for one Martian year (687 days from start of Mapping Phase).

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The MUSES-A spacecraft mission objectives are to study the effect of a double lunar swingby technique, lunar orbital insertion, obtain experience using optical navigation equipment, measure mass and momentum of micrometeorids by using a particle dust counter, and to support a packet telemetry and Reed-Solomon coding experiment by using a newly developed fault tolerant onboard computer.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

MUSES-A was launched on a MU-311-5 launch vehicle from Kagoshima Space Center (KSC) in Uchinoura, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan with a launch angle of 79 deg in elevation and 90 deg in azimuth. The burn of the 4th stage motor injects the spacecraft into the mission orbit of 200 km perigee, 350,000 km apogee, and 30 deg inclination. The spacecraft is spun up to 2 rev/s prior to

Y 30-1

870-14, Rev. AF

injection. After separation, the RCS maneuver was performed reducing the spin rate to 20 rev/min. Prior to the first swingby maneuver a tiny satellite (12 kg), which is carried aloft on the top of the main spacecraft, was injected into lunar orbit.

C. COVERAGE

No DSN launch vehicle support was required. The DSN will support the Mission phase only.

1. Coverage Goals

The DSN supports the Mission phase, providing downlink telemetry recording at all stations until one of the stations completes its second contact with the spacecraft. The DSN also provides radiometric data acquisition and orbit determination for each lunar swingby maneuver. This will involve five or six passes of about 6 hours duration. There is no requirement for DSN commanding.

A . MISSION DESCRIPTION

The Nimbus program provides for the research and development of a series of large automated spacecraft for the flight test of advanced instruments for pollution, oceanographic, and meteorological applications. The basic space- craft is attitude-stabilized in three axes, with the yaw axis always pointing towards the center of the Earth. The spacecraft provides a stable platform, power, command, and data handling support for active and passive sensors for daily global surveillance of the atmosphere, and for mapping details of the atmospheric structure and the Earth surface from satellite altitudes. The primary objectives of the Nimbus-7 mission are as follows:

(1) To observe gases or particulates in the troposphere to determine the feasibility of mapping sources, sinks, and dispersion mechanisms of atmospheric pollutants.

31-1

870-14, Rev. AF

(2) To observe ocean color, temperature, and ice conditions, particularly in coastal zones, with sufficient spatial and spectral resolution to determine the feasibility of applications such as detecting pollutants on the water surface; determining the nature of materials suspended in the water; applying the observations to the mapping of sediments, biologically productive areas, and interactions between coastal effluents and open ocean water; and demonstrating improvement in ship route forecasting.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

To provide daily global coverage, the Nimbus-7 spacecraft was launched October 24, 1978 into a nominally circular Sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of approximately 955 km. The inclination of the orbit plane was established at a value (approximately 99 degrees) such that orbital precession keeps the local time of equator crossing at 1200 local time, northbound. The nominal altitude and time of equator crossing was selected to meet experiment requirements for geographical resolutions, coverage, and data acquisition.

C. COVERAGE

The DSN began support on February 1, 1985.

1. Coverage Goals

Coverage will be provided through end of mission and will consist of twelve 15-minute passes per day. (The minimum requirement is nine 15-minute passes per day.)

Earth Orbit STDN (through Jan. 1985) DSN (after Jan. 1985) STDN BLT (after Jan. 1985)

The international GPS global network consists of six stations, all of which are equipped with GPS receivers and their connections to communication links with the appropriate operations center. For this mission the operations center is at JPL. Three of the sites are at the existing deep space stations, namely Goldstone, California, Tidbinbilla, Australia, and Robledo, Spain. The additional three sites are at Usuda, Japan, which is the location of its 64-m deep space station; Hartebestock, South Africa, which operates by French network stations with headquarters in Toulouse, France. For this project the interface for the data from South Africa is at Toulouse. The third site is at the former STDN complex 35 miles north of Santiago, Chile. The three sites will be covered by memorandums of agreements between NASA and the indigenous agencies, namely Institute of Space & Astronautical Sciences, Tokyo, Japan; the French network (CNES), which will be responsible for acquiring the data in South Africa and transmitting it to NASA JPL; and the University of Chile in Santiago, which has acquired all of the NASA STDN facilities and will maintain and operate the NASA equipment on loan and transmit the data to NASA JPL.

The JPL DSN will assume the lead role as "GPS Network Coordinator," with responsibility to initiate, facilitate, negotiate, and otherwise successfully execute all joint network operational aspects, including planning, documentation, configuration, communications, and monitor and control, of the joint DSN-International Agencies GPS Six-Station Network.

A . MISSION DESCRIPTION

The TOPEX Mission consists of a single TOPEX spacecraft which will be placed in a high Earth circular orbit, with an altitude of 1334 km and a 63-deg inclination. Earth tracks will repeat every 10 days. Using an altimeter, TOPEX will map the topography of the ocean's surface to obtain scientific data for use in determining global ocean circulation patterns.

Of particular interest to JPL is the Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) demonstration. Receivers and media calibration equipment at the DSS Media Calibration Subsystem at the three DSN complexes will augment the GPS system to provide a differential GPS data type, which will be used for precision orbit determination. With three DSN sites, 15-cm accuracy is anticipated. If three additional sites are acquired, >10-cm accuracy is expected.

The primary objective of the Pioneer 6 through 8 missions is to collect scientific data relative to interplanetary phenomena within a range of approximately 0.8 to 1.2 astronomical units (AUs) from the sun. Phenomena of particular interest include the characteristics of electric and magnetic fields, electron density along the Earth-spacecraft path, and temporal and spatial distribution of plasma, cosmic rays, high-energy particles, and cosmic dust.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

Each of the Pioneer spacecraft were launched into heliocentric orbit by Delta launch vehicles. Following injection, each spacecraft was oriented with its spin axis normal to the ecliptic plane so that the solar panels would be fully illuminated and the high-gain antenna pattern would be aligned with Earth's orbit.

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The ROSAT is an international cooperative program between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Bundesdnisterium fuer Forschung and Technologie (BMFT) of the Federal Republic of Germany. Germany will develop and provide a spacecraft with an X-ray telescope featuring two instruments at the focal plane of the telescope, and a stand-alone Wide Field X-ray Camera (WFC) provided by the United Kingdom (U.K.). NASA will provide one instrument: a High Resolution X-ray Imager (HRI) for mounting in the focal plane similar to the High Energy Astronomy Observatory (HEA0)-2 HRI. NASA launched the satellite on a Delta I1 vehicle in June 1990.

ROSAT will make an all-sky survey of X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (EW) sources, using redundant German Position Sensitive Proportional Counters (PSPCs) and the British WFC during the first six months of its orbital mission while in a scan mode. The next 12 months will be dedicated to detailed measurements of selected X-ray sources employing the U.S. HRI, the German PSPC, and the U.K WFC in a stationary or pointing mode of spacecraft operation.

In the scan mode, the spacecraft will maintain the telescope axis approximately normal to the Earth (i.e., one spacecraft rotation per orbit) - In the pointing mode, the spacecraft will be three-axis stabilized with the

A . MISSION DESCRIPTION

GSFC developed the SMEX program, managed by the Special Payloads Division (SPD) (Code 7 4 0 ) , to provide frequent flight opportunities for highly focused and inexpensive space science missions. SMEX was conceived as a low- cost program with a short turnaround ( 3 years) from mission selection until launch. SAMPEX is the first mission of the SMEX program. Its primary scientific objectives are to measure the elemental and isotopic composition of solar energetic particles, anomalous cosmic rays, and galactic cosmic rays over the energy range from approximately 1 to several hundred MeV per nucleon. By determining the dependence of the fluxes on geomagnetic cutoff rigidity over the polar orbit, the ionization state o f the anomalous component will be determined, along with the mean ionization state o f solar energetic particles. The dependence of these fluxes on the solar activity cycle will be measured by carrying out continuous observations over an extended (3-year) portion of the current activity cycle. A further primary objective is to

870-14, Rev. AF

determine flux levels and local time dependence of relativistic precipitating magnetospheric electrons during a period of declining solar activity.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

SAMPEX will be launched June 1992, using a four-stage Scout launch vehicle into a nominal elliptical orbit of 450 by 850 kilometers with an inclination of 82 degrees (not Sun-synchronous) from VAFB. There is no transfer orbit for the SAMPEX spacecraft.

Using this Scout configuration, the uncertainty in achieving the perigee and apogee are as follows for a (TBS) percent probability.

LV/Range: STS-IUS/ETR MSM: J. McKenzie (GSFC)

Launch Date: C - 29 September 1988; D - 13 March 1989; E - January 31, 1991; F - 19 November 1992

P-: Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC)

Source: SIRD December 1982 Sponsor: OSSA

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) consists of four identical satellites in geosynchronous orbits and a dedicated ground station. The first two satellites (TDRS east and TDRS west) will form the operational TDRS service providing near-global real-time user satellite coverage. The third satellite will be an in-orbit spare.

The payload of each TDRS is a telecommunications service system that relays communication signals between low Earth-orbiting user spacecraft and the TDRSS ground terminal. This relay is accomplished by two types o f communications links: (1) a multiple-access system, with one 30-element S-band phased-array antenna system; and (2) a single-access system, either S-band single-access or K-band single-access, with two 4.8-meter parabolic antennas, each operating at both S-band and K-band.

870-14, Rev. AF

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

Each TDRS will be placed into a geostationary orbit with an altitude of 35,800 km. At apogee, the satellites will arrive at 56, 79, 102, or 94 degrees west longitude corresponding to deployment and transfer from the Shuttle orbits of 8th descending, 9th descending, 10th descending, or 18th ascending nodes, respectively. From one of these initial locations, each TDRS will drift to its operational position, resulting in one TDRS at 41 degrees west longitude (TDRS east) and one at 171 degrees west longitude (TDRS west). Each spacecraft will have an inclination of 0 degree. The in-orbit spare will be located between 55 and 70 degrees west longitude at a 0-degree inclination to minimize the time needed to reach either geosynchronous station.

C. COVElXAGE

1. Coverage Goals

The DSN is responsible for supporting launch and transfer orbits and providing emergency support from Goldstone and Madrid beginning in February 1985. The 26- or 34-m antenna will provide the emergency support. Follow-on launch and transfer orbit support will be required for replacement launches from all three complexes.

2. Network Support

A. MISSION DESCRIPTION

The primary objectives of Ulysses are to extend scientific knowledge and understanding through exploration of the Sun and its environment, and to investigate possible mechanisms coupling solar variability to terrestrial weather and climate by studying the Sun's structure and emission as a function of latitude from the solar equator to the solar poles.

B. FLIGHT PROFILE

Ulysses consists of a single European Space Agency (ESA) spacecraft. The spacecraft will be launched in 1990 from Kennedy Space Center (KSC) by a Space Transportation System (STS) vehicle using an Inertial Upper Stage (IUS) and a Propulsion Assist Module (PAM-S) to inject the spacecraft into an inter- planetary orbit toward Jupiter. After Jupiter flyby, the spacecraft travels

870-14, Rev. AF

in a heliocentric, out-of-ecliptic orbit with high heliographic inclination. The mission terminates in September 1995 at the end of the second polar pass. The highest priority portion of the mission occurs when the spacecraft is greater than 70 degrees heliographic latitude during solar passes.

C. COVERAGE

1. Coverage Goals

The antenna coverage profile provided below supports the Ulysses SIRD, JPL D-292, dated April 24, 1989. There have not been any additions or deletions to the SIRD since launch, October 1990. The requirements are expected to increase only when the project cannot obtain minimal support to retrieve data from its on-board tape recorder to complete daily 24-hour coverage throughout the prime mission phase.

The DSN expects to meet the coverage goals except when other spacecraft emergencies occur or in the case of other interruptions which are beyond the control of the DSN.
